General & Family Physician 's  Response
Hello,

The symptoms seem to be related to an insect bite. I suggest using antihistamines such as Benadryl. I also suggest using Hydrocortisone cream for local application.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
